Looks like nick also forgot to mark this patch for review (before disappearing).  It looks "fine" to me, but likely needs to be tested in some way.  Hyatt, being the font guy, should really comment.

CC'ing hyatt so that he might comment on whether these are useful to add to WebKit or not.  If they're not, then this bug can simply be closed.  (Remember: this is not my patch... I'm just cleaning up some old bugs. :)

We'd like to minimize the # of aliases like this, especially if these fonts are rare.  I don't think we want this patch.
